UMA WG Update

  • The Work Group's chair and vice-chair presented the specifications to the OAuth group (remotely) at the IETF 104 meeting in Prague and several other UMA2 stakeholders were present in the room. Discussions are ongoing with the OAuth group leadership about when and how to do a call for adoption of the documents. The UMA Work Group chair plans to do an extended in-person Q&A session IETF 105 in July in Montreal, in which there seems to be good interest.
  • A plan is moving forward for reinvigorating the business model work and publishing a second report by September.
  • Implementers are discussing how best to report out on interoperability testing work done to date at the Identiverse conference.
  • The chair is doing an UMA 101 session by request at the upcoming IIW event.
  • One or more profiles/extensions are expected to be contributed for discussion as potential work items shortly.
  • Our meeting schedule in Q2 is lightened due to its being "identity conference season".
